After the events of book one, Teeko and Kiran are no closer to finding a mage who could get Teeko unshrunk. Meanwhile, increasingly large and nasty monsters are coming from the dangerous lands to the west, and it's Kiran's job to stop them. That job may be starting to get too big for him, especially as his own powers start to escape his control.

(This book covers Chapter 6 through Chapter 10, and the introduction of Astrid and Bethan in larger roles! It'll be 230 pages long :O)
